Charm point maxed out, inheriting game assets

Chapter 1703: Chapter 587: Orange! Orange!_3

And ”Dragon Ball” is his favorite series. He was once obsessed with Super Saiyan Goku and initially borrowed Zhang Lei’s manga to read.

Later, he wanted to buy a set for permanent collection.

In his memory, Zhang Yan lost a 2009 edition of ”Dragon Ball,” which he cherished and managed to buy with great effort.

At the time, she could only apologize continuously, burying her head in tears, unable to explain a single word.

He was extremely angry then, and avoided speaking to this clumsy deskmate for several days.

However, the anger of youth comes quickly and goes quickly.

Before long, he put the matter behind him.

Unexpectedly, this deskmate remembers it to this day and even bought an entire set again.

Tang Song slowly closed his eyes.

The fragments that were once pieced together little by little, awakened by [Memory Feather], ignored by himself.

At this moment, these pieces were completely connected and activated by this letter.

Zhang Yan’s figure appeared in his mind with unprecedented clarity bit by bit.

Junior high, high school, university, Imperial City...

In his dream-like state, he was in a very special condition, subconsciously ignoring many things to prevent emotional dominance and information overload.

Zhang Yan was among the ignored details.

Yet, throughout his youth, she was keeping an eye on him in such a way.

An indescribable emotion vibrated within his chest.

When he opened his eyes again, there was a layer of moist light in his gaze.

”Thump, thump, thump...”

The sound of his heartbeat echoed in his ears, so clear.

The passion and impulse of his youth seemed to be reignited by this letter at this moment.

”Boom!”

He stood up abruptly, his eyes passing through the large floor-to-ceiling window, landing in the profound night.

Yang City... Zhang Yan...

A thought crazily sprouted and clamored in his mind.

He wanted to see her immediately.

He wanted to personally receive that letter, wanted to personally take that set of manga.

He wanted to chat with her, to tell her, he hadn’t forgotten her.

”Tap, tap, tap—” The sound of footsteps rang out.

Wen Ruan, who was chatting with her girlfriends, looked up in surprise, ”What’s wrong?”

”I have some urgent matters to handle and need to go out.”

Seeing his expression, Wen Ruan didn’t say much, and gently said, ”Go ahead, be careful.”

Tang Song nodded, changed into leather shoes, and strode outside.

...

On the electric grill, slices of beef sizzled at high temperature, the edges curling and turning golden brown, emitting an alluring aroma mixed with the fresh sweetness of green peppers.

The small rented room was suffused with a lively atmosphere and the fragrance of food.

The three of them sat around the coffee table.

Orange lazily nestled at Zhang Yan’s feet, occasionally fed a small chunk of meat without sauce.

”Come, let’s toast!” Lulu raised her RIO cocktail high, her cheeks flushed with excitement, ”To our invincible friendship, and to our damn, shitty work life!”

”Cheers!” Li Chao responded heartily, clinking the glass bottles heavily.

Zhang Yan also raised her bottle, the cold liquid sliding down her throat.

She couldn’t help but glance at her phone screen again, still no message.

Feeling a bit anxious.

Wondering whether Tang Song had seen it or simply considered it an ordinary ”prank?”

By now, has she already been deleted as a friend?

Lulu skillfully flipped the shrimp on the grill, giving Li Chao a stealthy look.

Li Chao instantly understood, set down his chopsticks, cleared his throat and said, ”Zhang Yan, I heard from Lulu that today you directly confronted that fat guy face-to-face in the office, really impressive!”

Lulu chimed in, ”Exactly! That pale fat guy’s face turned green back then!”

”I...” Zhang Yan opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately lowered her head shyly.

She indeed was a bit impulsive at the time.

She knew, given the current situation of the company, publicly offending the leader meant she was sure to be the first one ”kicked out.”

She might even be forced to resign on her own, not getting any compensation.

Li Chao rapped the table with enthusiasm, ”That kind of dumb leader needs a confrontation! Always PUA employees... Let me tell you, the leader of my current crappy company is also an old dog...”

Li Chao began vividly detailing his ”tragic experiences,” sometimes imitating the oily accent of his leaders, sometimes condemning the unreasonable overtime system, amusing the other two to bursts of laughter.

The atmosphere, amid the grumbling and complaints, became even more relaxed and congenial.

After chatting for a while, Li Chao changed his tone seriously, ”But back to the point, Zhang Yan, don’t worry too much. That’s how work is. Plus, Shu Cheng Technology is just a small firm, there’s no real growth opportunity. Leaving might just open an opportunity in a big company. Look at Lulu, she’s even gone to interview at Star Cloud International Group, that’s impressive.”

Lulu’s expression paused, and then a hint of undisguised excitement flashed in her eyes, she said mysteriously, ”There’s something I haven’t had a chance to tell you yet.”

”What’s it?” Li Chao asked curiously.

”This afternoon, I received a call from Star Cloud International Group HR,” Lulu’s voice raised a few notches, ”I passed the first interview! Starting next Monday, I’ll be preparing for the second one!”

”Wow! That’s impressive!” Li Chao exclaimed, eyes wide.

A pure joy bloomed on Zhang Yan’s face as she eagerly raised her bottle, ”Congrats Lulu!”

Lulu clinked hers with hers and stuck her tongue out, ”Actually, there’s not much hope, but I’m really satisfied to even get into a second interview, purely a stroke of luck...”
